Artwork For New Album "Will To Power" Revealed By Arch Enemy

Metal powerhouse Arch Enemy is ready to bring a fierce brand of metal to audiences worldwide as the band announces details on the upcoming new album, "Will To Power," which is out September 8th via Century Media Records. The band is excited to reveal the album's captivating cover artwork, as shown below, which was designed by Alex Reisfar.

Guitarist Michael Amott commented on the artwork: "It was a pleasure working with Alex Reisfar on the 'Will to Power' cover artwork, he immediately grasped the concept and atmosphere we were looking for with this album. We talked about the double edged sword that is human ambition, how it can be outstandingly creative and beautiful but can also be turned into something dark and powerful. Alex proceeded to masterfully paint a strong image that evokes a lot of feelings. The human skull as a central focal point, the flesh sort of falling off into the circular pattern. The snake ouroboros weaving in and out of the mouths and throats of the severed heads of a wolf, a goat and a vampire bat... All representing self determination and a predatory, almost parasitic will to power"

Co-produced by Amott and drummer Daniel Erlandsson, the album was sent to long time collaborator and friend Jens Bogren (Opeth, At The Gates, Dimmu Borgir) for mixing and mastering and marks legendary guitarist Jeff Loomis' (Nevermore) first recording with the band.

Following in the steps of the most acclaimed album to date, "War Eternal," which saw the band reach the highest charts in the US and Germany to date, "Will To Power" will continue to smash records worldwide.
